I was trying to create a new class which should generate a ListView, but I have an error..
Error says unable to start activity I’m confused; can anyone tell me where the problem is, what did I do wrong or what can I do?

CODE

public class ManagerView extends ListActivity{

DBAdapter db;
Cursor cr;
String arr[];


@Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
}



@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    
            db = new DBAdapter(this);
            cr = db.getAllRecords();
    int i = 0;
    Cursor crr = null;
    
    try {crr = db.getRecord(4);}
    catch (IOException e) {e.printStackTrace();}
    
    for (cr.moveToFirst(); !cr.moveToLast(); cr.moveToNext()){
        
        arr[i] = crr.getString(i);
        i++;
        }
        
    setListAdapter (new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, arr));
    }

}

    Unable to find explicit activity class
    {com.example.tsfc/com.example.tsfc.ManagerView}; have you declared
    this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml? 12-30 16:35:09.451:

    make sure you have declared your activity in AndroidManifest as:

    <activity android:name="com.example.tsfc.ManagerView" />

    and
    Currently you are initializing DBAdapter in wrong place . move all database class initialization and getAllRecords inside onCreate of ListActivity as:

    public  class ManagerView extends ListActivity{

DBAdapter db ;
Cursor cr ;
String arr[];



@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);


     db = new DBAdapter(ManagerView.this);
     cr = db.getAllRecords();
}

// your code here,...
